ABOUT REGION The region of South Bohemia is situated on the boundary with Bavaria and Austria. Its neighbors are Kraj Vysočina (Vysočina Region), Plzeňský kraj (Plzeň Region), Středočeský kraj (Central Bohemia) and Jihomoravský kraj (South Moravia Region). There are seven districts in this region: České Budějovice, Český Krumlov, Jindřichův Hradec, Písek, Prachatice, Strakonice and Tábor. The area of South Bohemia is 10,057 km2 which is 12.8 % of Czech Republic territory. South Bohemia is the second largest region in the country but only the seventh most populated – in H1 2009 there were only 636,030 inhabitants living in South Bohemia (about 6 % of the population in the Czech Republic).České Budějovice is the capital of South Bohemia with a population of 95,071. There are 20 towns with populations exceeding 5,000 in the region. Tourists coming to South Bohemia seek its well preserved nature. There is the national park Šumava and three other sanctuaries in the region. South Bohemia has areas that are well disposed for outdoor sports in the summer (Lipno reservoir, Třeboň with its ponds and the Vltava valley) and in winter there are skiing resorts in the Šumava Mountains. Fairs of national importance are organized every year in the city of České Budějovice. Two of South Bohemia’s landmarks are on the UNESCO World Heritage List – the medieval downtown of Český Krumlov and “rural baroque” sanctuary in Holašovice village. The town of Slavonice and the complex of ponds in the Třeboň area are also contending for a place on UNESCO list. České Budějovice, Jindřichův Hradec, Tábor and Třeboň are protected by law as

34

urban sanctuaries. The most visited castles in South Bohemia are Hluboká nad Vltavou, Český Krumlov, Orlík and Zvíkov. “Jelení” bridge in the town of Písek dates from the end of the 13th century and is the oldest existing bridge built of stones on Czech territory. Jihočeská univerzita (University of South Bohemia; JČU) has seven colleges. Mainly local works in disciplines linked to agriculture and biology have national importance. Prague’s VŠE College of management is located in Jindfiichův Hradec and in České Budějovice there are two institutes of the Academy of Sciences of the CR: The Biology Center and the Institute of Systems of Biology and Ecology. Thanks to the long local tradition in fishpond cultivation South Bohemia economy is marked with a high participation in this primary sector. Other traditional domains are construction, machinery and the food industry. A typical feature of South Bohemia’s economy is a high number of industrial clusters. The most developed industries are those in waterworks technologies, renewable resources of energy, and construction materials production. South Bohemia has its potential in preserved nature, numerous landmarks, a relatively advantageous age structure of the population, a contemplated construction of a railway corridor and a highway leading to České Budějovice, sufficiency of accommodation capacity in mountain areas, numerous expositions and fairs, the opening of new border check points, building of new thematic industrial clusters and research and development in biology and farming.

ABOUT REGION The region of Plzeň is located in the western part of Bohemia on the boundary with Bavaria, neighboring with Central and South Bohemia and with the regions of Karlovy Vary and Usti nad Labem. The Plzeň Region is divided among seven districts: Domažlice, Klatovy, Plzeň-město (City), Plzeň-sever (North), Rokycany and Tachov. The area of the Plzeň region is 7,561 km2, i.e. 9.6 % of the country’s territory. It is the third largest of regions. As of H1 2009 the Plzeň Region had a population of 568,976 which is 5.4 % of the Czech Republic population and the ninth place among the country’s region. The region’s capital Plzeň with 165,238 inhabitants is the fourth largest city in Czech Republic. There are 14 towns with a population over 5,000 in the Plzeň Region. The most important natural monuments include the National Park of Šumava, sanctuary Šumava and sanctury Český les in the Plzeň Region. All of these are continuously gaining importance as winter sports resorts. Areas in the vicinity of Plzeň also offer interesting space for leisure and recreation activities. Though none of the landmarks and historic buildings in the region belongs to the UNESCO list of World Heritage, the region is virtually covered with them. Among the most interesting are monasteries in Plasy and Kladruby and castles Kozel, Rabi (ruins) and Švihov. There are three urban sanctuaries in Plzeň Region. The tower of St. Bartholomew’s Dome (the highest church tower in Czech Republic) has become

a symbol of the sanctuary in Plzeň. The other two sanctuaries are in Domažlice and Horšovský Týn. The folklore festival organized every year in Domažlice (sub-region Chodsko) is an event of utmost cultural importance for the region. The largest university in Plzeň Region is Západočeská univerzita (West Bohemia University) in Plzeň, with seven colleges offering courses in engineering, science, and humanities, as well as new disciplines of applied sciences. There is also a local faculty of Medicine belonging to Charles University Prague. Private universities are not of much importance in Plzeň. One of them, Vysoka škola v Plzni (University of Plzeň) is focused on health care. Plzeň and its outskirts have always belonged to the most industrialized areas in the country, mainly thanks to rich deposits of raw materials. Foreign investments are flowing in the electronics, machinery and food industries. Lumber and car making industries have their importance here as well. Thematic industrial clusters are not well developed yet. This region’s potential depends on its advantageous position in the western part of the country. Other promising assets include qualified workforce, the status of the local university, sufficient supplies of raw materials for the manufacturing industry, good conditions for tourism in mountain areas and numerous landmarks and natural monuments.
